Participants imagine themselves inside a large star at the end of its life, just as it is about to go supernova. Learn what happens in the core of a star when it runs out of fuel. This is a very active, engaging activity that your audience will remember.

In this engineering design challenge, students will use what they know and can investigate about gravity, motion, and forces to design and build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two "astronauts" when they land.
